<span>When the Hawaiian islands were formally annexed by the United States in 1898, the event marked end of a lengthy internal struggle between native Hawaiians and white American businessmen for control of the Hawaiian government. In 1893 the last monarch of Hawaii, Queen Lili'uokalani, was overthrown by party of businessmen, who then imposed a provisional government. Soon after, President Benjamin Harrison submitted a treaty to annex the Hawaiian islands to the U.S. Senate for ratification. In 1897, the treaty effort was blocked when the newly-formed Hawaiian Patriotic League, composed of native Hawaiians, successfully petitioned the U.S. Congress in opposition of the treaty.

There are several reasons why we might oppose to the annexation of Hawaii by the United States government. Some of this could be:

  • The fact that all people and nations have the right to govern themselves. Hawaiians deserve to make their own decisions.
  • The deposition of Queen Liliuokalani was forceful, and did not follow democratic or legal procedures.
  • A treaty of friendship, as existed originally, already gives the United States many privileges in terms of trade.
  • The economy of Hawaii was already very integrated to that of the United States.
  • A new state in the country represents a significant expense for the federal government.

sergij07 [2.7K]

The correct answer is no. Before Magellan arrived in the Philippines, visitors, traders, and colonizers as the Malayo-Polynesians arrived at the country and over the next 2000 years, they spread across the Philippines.  

The Philippines were claimed for Spain in 1521 by Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese explorer sailing for Spain, who named the islands in honor to King Philip II of Spain.

Why was Virginia more likely to trade with Massachusetts than Georgia?
VladimirAG [237]
The reason is Georgia was a colony for runaway prisoners and for people with huge debts(more than a 1000) so Georgia didn't have many valuable items.

(02.03 LC)<br> How does the executive branch provide a check on the power of the legislative branch?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

Checks and Balances is a system most commonly found in a constitutional style of government , usually with three levels of power allocation … the executive branch , the legislative branch , and the judicial branch .

The legislative branch can `` check ‘’ the executive branch by rejecting the President's veto of a legislative action …this is known as an override . A two third vote in each legislative chamber ( House of Representatives and Senate ) is required to override a Presidential veto .

The Senate can reject a treaty that the Executive has signed ; a two thirds vote in the Senate is required to formally enact a treaty .

The Senate must approve Executive appointments to cabinet , and the Federal Judiciary .

The ultimate check for the legislative branch is the power to impeach and remove the president . The House of Representatives acts as prosecutor , and The Senate acts as jury . The House of Representatives drafted articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon in 1974 , but Nixon resigned the office of the presidency before he was formally impeached .

The override of a presidential veto has rarely taken place . Only ten percent of presidential vetoes have been rejected by the legislative branch in American history .
